New Blooms Febuary 2012 (Part 1)

THE GOOD, THE BAD AND THE UGLY
(Blooms for the month of Febuary 2012) - Part 1

I have been so busy with my farm, orchid shows, POS blog and facebook that I have received many complaints that I have not updated my blog for a long time. This is true and my sincere apologies to all orchiidists for my shortcomings. As there will not be any big shows until April, I better feature some of the orchids that have bloomed in my farm this month.

Some are showy but some are a great disappointment, a common feature that besets all hybridisers. but nevertheless I am showing them for the benefits of those who have bought seedlings or flasks from me.

New blooms for Febuary 2012 (Part 3)

Novelty phalaenopsis comes in many shapes and colours. Some are round and star star shaped. Others are white, green. yellow, red. orange and now blue. My favourites are the red round ones but nothing can beat the cornu-cervi hybrids which are star shaped. As you can see from the recent blooms a high proportion is the star-shaped ones. I still have, in flasks and pods, the chattaladae hybrids.
